Al Franken's ditto head taking a beating!
Al has a former ditto head on and he's handing Mark his ass.

Mark's getting a tad be defensive.

1. He did get his panties all wadded up huh?
Having to go through life defending rush limbaugh? He'd be better off being a janitor in an adult bookstore. What a pathetic human being you are mark! And he makes it so easy for Franken.

5. Maybe because having a former dittohead on...

hit a little too close to home. It's easy for Luther to dismiss Al as a liberal, it's probably a little harder to shrug off someone who used to be just like him.

13. Thanks Cat Woman
As a former commanding officer told me while looking at my test scores, "you'll never be a diesel mechanic." (said with a demeaning scowel.) My literary scores were much higher than my mechanical scores. Actually "conservatives" make such easy targets. They inspire me to hunt and peck with gusto.

3. Why does that Mark Luther guy come on the show?
He's regularly made a monkey of.

4. Ignorance? Pride?
Self-loathing?

9. I don't get that guy....
he's a prof at DU (I myself live in Denver) and you'd think once you got to a certain level...and especially if you worked in higher education...you'd evolve beyond the black and white dittohead thinking.

Hey, but my Dad is a prof too. And he has the same problem. Of course 20 years of military indoctrination probably plays a big role in that.

11. I don't know if I'm the exception or the rule
but I spent 24 years in the Navy and I'm about as liberal as a person can be. My time in the Navy was spent achieving mission and striving for effectiveness. I don't recall too much political indoctrination. That must have happened way above my paygrade.

14. Well...my Dad went in as enlisted...
did two tours of Vietnam. Came home, went through OCS, and retired a Major.

I'm sure it doesn't help that he retired in the mid '80's in Colorado Springs...and has been there ever since. That city is like one big cult.

10. I enjoyed that.
Al should just have them both on all the time and stay out of it. Luther kind of started to get a little sore headed, didn't he? Very much like most dittoheads, they don't want to hear the truth, and fall back on talking points.
